Has anyone had success gluing a cracked tail light lens and if so what glue did you use.

This Bondic process looks promising: https://youtu.be/FQpwsLpnbF0

Depending on the severity of the crack you could also use something like a decent "super glue" or windshield repair glue (injection repair for star burst / bulls eye cracks) available from most auto parts or hardware stores.

I bought a kit years ago from Auto Zone, I think. It was a SYON Seal-N-Place Lens Repair Kit, Red Amber, Clear. As I recall it worked well. It even has pattern sheets to mimic the tiny pattern in your lens.
